Analysis on distribution regularity of clinical critical value in Xining area / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the distribution regularity of the clinical critical value in the plateau region by analyzing the clinical critical value distribution situation in order to provide the scientific basis for further perfect the critical value report system. Methods The critical value items reported by our department from July 1,2010 to June 30,2011 were retrospectively analyzed for studying its distribution regularity.Results The incidence rate of critical values report in our hospital was 0.29%,the incidence rate of critical value such as blood potassium,glucose and blood gas pH had no difference in distribution between genders in Xining region(P >0.05),but had significantly difference among different age groups(P <0.05).In addition,the report number of the criti-cal value of the blood potassium,glucose and blood gas pH in the internal medicine was significantly higher than that in the surgical departments(P <0.01).Conclusion The periodic retrospective analysis of critical value report helps to improve the clinical diagno-sis and the reporting system of critical value.
